Rosacea is a chronic skin condition affecting the skin on the nose, cheeks, and forehead. The symptoms include reddened skin, flushing, visible blood vessels, and breakouts. Symptoms usually flare up and then fade, over and over, and the condition can be embarrassing or painful.

What causes rosacea?

The cause of rosacea is not entirely understood, but some evidence suggests that it might be hereditary and how the skin responds to specific environmental triggers. If you suffer from rosacea, the symptoms may appear or worsen when you:

Consume spicy foods
Drink hot coffee or tea
Consume foods containing cinnamaldehyde, such as cinnamon, chocolate, tomatoes, or citrus fruit

Can rosacea be treated?

Recent developments in aesthetic science have now made it possible to treat rosacea with lasting relief. At B + A Medical Aesthetics in Cedar Park, we are committed to helping people with rosacea treat the flushing, visible veins, reddened skin, and breakouts of rosacea.

What treatment is best for rosacea?

Your skin condition is unique to you, and the first step is to evaluate the extent of your symptoms. Our board-certified physicians are dedicated to recommending treatments that produce results you can see and feel, and leaving you able to enjoy life with greater confidence.

IPL PhotoFacial

Our IPL treatments have proven to be one of the most effective treatments for rosacea. The light energy emitted by the device enters your skin, constricting the blood vessels. As with any laser treatment, IPL should be performed under the care of a board-certified physician and trained technician. The procedure is not very difficult to experience, producing a sensation that feels like a hot snap against your skin. It takes only minutes to complete.

Microneedling with RF

Your treatment regimen may include microneedling with RF to trigger natural skin regeneration. This treatment goes beyond standard microneedling, as the depth of the microchannels created by the needles go deeper into the skin tissues and emit RF energy to stimulate natural regeneration.

Mild skin peels

Regular, mild chemical peels can help you keep your facial skin looking refreshed and renewed. As your skin is likely sensitive, tending to dryness, only a very mild formula should be applied.
